.. Isabel Monk Cade brings her NYC-based salon Hard Drive [[[Disque Dur]]] to Paris for Volume 2
. Hard Drive is a salon and open performance series
 Poetry, comedy, essay, music, anything goes! This edition focuses on the femme experience and women artists (however all are welcome); inviting you to dig through your literal and proverbial hard drives for the half-written stories, the scribbled nothings, and the scripts and songs you’ve been too scared to re-read. There will be a featured reading by Isabel Monk Cade of an essay, followed by randomly selected names from the sign up hat. Each person will have 7 minutes. 7PM Sign Up \| 7:30PM Salon FAQ
 Piano, amps, microphone, provided, everything else is BYO. Notebooks encouraged, phones discouraged, and "no assholes." Hosted in English, but French is always welcome. - Éjecter avant de dĂ©connecter

Introduction aux 4 nobles vérités : Conférence avec un invité exceptionnel
Introduction aux 4 nobles vérités : Conférence avec un invité exceptionnel
Les 4 Nobles VĂ©ritĂ©s sont les premiĂšres instructions que Bouddha a donnĂ©es aprĂšs avoir atteint l’éveil sous l’arbre Bodhi Ă  Bodh Gaya. Dans ce monde de plus en plus troublĂ©, nos moments de bonheur sont Ă©phĂ©mĂšres et la paix intĂ©rieure nous Ă©chappe le plus souvent. Ces enseignements sur les Quatre Nobles VĂ©ritĂ©s sont des mĂ©thodes scientifiques pour nous libĂ©rer de nos Ă©tats d’esprits nĂ©gatifs, tels que les dĂ©sirs incontrĂŽlĂ©s ou la colĂšre, qui nous empĂȘchent de faire l’expĂ©rience d’un bonheur durable. **Pourquoi assister Ă  cette confĂ©rence ?** * Explorer la sagesse intemporelle partagĂ©e par Bouddha et dĂ©couvrir comment elle peut transformer notre existence. * RĂ©flĂ©chir sur le sens profond de notre vie et identifier la vĂ©ritable cause de la souffrance ainsi que la maniĂšre de s’en libĂ©rer. * Plonger dans des notions essentielles telles que l’impermanence et la vacuitĂ©. * Repartir avec des conseils pratiques pour Ă©tablir en nous plus de paix. * Participer Ă  un Ă©vĂ©nement avec GuĂšn Tonglam, du centre kadampa de Hong Kong, un enseignant international qui a plus de 30 ans d’expĂ©rience de la mĂ©ditation kadampa. Il s’agit d’un Ă©vĂ©nement spĂ©cial Ă  ne pas manquer !

Shut Up & Write!Âź East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us.

Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.

Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late.

The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times.
